    Some Intel CPUs lost 9% of their performance almost overnight By Jacob RoachApril 22, 2024 "Over the past few weeks, we’ve seen an increasing number of reports of instability on high-end Intel CPUs like the Core i9-14900K. Asus has released a BIOS update for its Z790 motherboards aimed at...

    New RISC-V microprocessor can run CPU, GPU, and NPU workloads simultaneously

    What you have here doesn't make sense. Who is developing their own ISA? RISC-V is the ISA. The core architecture is what changes and isn't licensed.

    New ZenHammer memory attack impacts AMD Zen CPUs

    If an exploit is only on two architectures by default without much funding and you spend a large amount of effort targeting a more resilient architecture at some point it becomes more of a tech demo. Reverse engineering anything takes A LOT of resources more than your average hacker. So yeah...

    Global sales of XBox are so bad developers wonder if supporting the console is worth it for them

    Please don't give Microsoft any ideas. I'm loving Valve's attention to Linux.

    Linux market share passes 4% for first time

    I know. I'm just saying Garuda Linux isn't that old of a distro. It's newer.

    They have videos of it running on Steam Deck. Once I saw that I was pretty sure it was going to work. You also have a pretty non-standard distro so your mileage will vary.

    Linux market share passes 4% for first time

    This is what happens if I alt+tab. https://streamable.com/asi55n Here's Battlenet. All of this is out of the box behavior I haven't changed or tweaked anything. Just install and go like Windows. I mean for Proton I just made sure it wasn't set to experimental for BattleNet. That was the extent...

    Unpatchable vulnerability in Apple chip leaks secret encryption keys

    People won't accept that most of the prefetch tricks have already been tried already. We are long past the Pentium / Athlon days. Most of the easy stuff has been done. Heterogeneous computing will likely be the next phase where we once again move to specialized units within APUs just stacked...

    Of course it doesn't. But it also doesn't change the fact that Wayland and KDE is buggy meanwhile in Gnome it's not, which is part of the reason why your experience and mine are so different. Most people are going to use the WM that's the default of the DE.

    Linux market share passes 4% for first time

    It's not on Steam. You can use Steam and it's libraries to install software. So you download regular Battle.net. You then pick Add a Game in the lower left corner of Steam. Then you right click on the application. Go to compatibility then force use of Proton (its a fork of Wine).

    Yikes. Battlenet. Try installing it to Steam and then using Proton on it. Much easier.

    Linux market share passes 4% for first time

    KDE's Wayland support has lagged Gnome by quite a bit for quite some time. It's been garbage but that's not Wayland that's KDE and Plasma. It was slower than Gnome for eons until just recently. So of course you had issues you've got the holy trinity of having a bad time right there. KDE's broken...
